Personalize you Wedding with a custom Monogram

Announce your joining by showcasing your initials with a custom monogram that can be printed and illuminated throughout your wedding elements. The result is a beautiful personalization in your photos and video that make you stand apart from all others. You and your guests will enjoy the enticing options you choose as they are showcased on everything from your save the dates to elements throughout your ceremony and reception.

Monograms come in many styles from the traditional, Bride and Groom first initial with last name initial in the middle, to more contemporary forms with first names with last initial. I enjoy creating custom monograms for my clients and incorporating their personality and theme into each one. When I design one for a client, I will use several visuals to help choose the style that’s right for each. Often I find elements they’ve already chosen for their wedding theme and incorporate that into their final designs. For example, if you’re choosing a fall wedding theme and have chosen an invitation package with a fall leaf motif and art, I’ll combine the art into the full design. Then I’ll use the full monogram in printed material where there is plenty of room and I’ll create a simpler version to be used in more delicate areas like a floor gobo. Through my creative skills and talents, I have even found a way to incorporate your elegant monogram on everything from your guest book and unity candles to umbrellas and decals.

All of the examples in this theme board were created for special clients of mine who utilized their monograms to accent their special day. I enjoyed finding ways to incorporate them into numerous elements of their weddings from seating charts and banners to umbrellas and floor gobos. The result was a unique imprint for each that can be used for years to come in commemoration of their joining.

I hope this inspires you to customize your special day

Starfish Wedding Theme

The stylish and delicate starfish is a romantic accent to any wedding or party theme. It’s perfect for the beach-goer and adds a touch of elegance to any event. Whether you have an affinity for the ocean or are choosing the starfish for its symbolism of deep divine love, it’s a stunning accent that adds grace and beauty to your theme.

There are dozens of choices in starfish accents from your favors to your wedding cake topper. They can be the focus of a delicate accent, like in the sample in the theme board below ‘Starfish Beach’ custom designed for a special client enjoying a beach theme wedding or it can be the focus for your entire theme. Starfish can accent boutonnières, floral arrangements, guest books and more and come in a variety of shapes and colors.

Shades of blue are perfect to accent the starfish theme, but many other colors will compliment it to make a warm and enticing color palette. I love the accents of blue in the theme board below that entices us with thoughts of warm soft sands and relaxing island getaways. Add to this enticing theme, honeymoon plans to warm, soft sand beaches and you have a complete package that you will enjoy for a lifetime.

Now go have some fun at the beach!

Wedding Monograms-Wedding Logos-Custom Monograms

Lindsey and Dave will be getting married next weekend at Kapok Special Events in Clearwater, and I am excited for them and their upcoming wedding day! As their Day of Coordinator, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with them and assisting to add creative personalized elements for their special day. I designed a custom monogram for them that I will display with a projector onto the floor of the Grand Ballroom during their reception. I designed several options to get them started, and when they found just the lettering style they liked and the elements they wanted to be included, I created a unique design just for them! Monograms are a beautiful way to personalize your special day and can be used in delicate detail throughout your wedding. When they are projected on the dance floor, I just love the way the names and letters dance across the Bride and Groom as they enjoy their first dance together as Mr. and Mrs. It makes for stunning photos and videos and creates personalized memories that last a lifetime! I know from personal experience, some of my favorite photos from my own wedding include our personalization!

Wedding Invitations in Clearwater

One of my favorite invitation suites that I offer from my Wedding Stationery line is this custom Wedding Suite for Nelly and Tito entitled 'Feathered Sophistication' that included just the right shade of blue to match her dresses and additional 'bling' to make a stunning impression. From my 30 years design and printing experience, I was able to customize a package in her colors with all the elements she needed. I included custom unity candles with their monogram, guest book, pen set and more to match their theme and colors. I enjoyed assisting them in making their day unique and memorable and thoroughly enjoyed planning their special day with all the details. It was an absolutely beautiful event and a night to remember for them and all of their guests!
